On Monday, the 10th, I had a fun time hanging out with my dear friend Kristen Cottrell---from my Alta High School days :) We had a scrumptuous potato bar dinner at her place with her family and ended up talking until 2am catching up--at which point she finally passed out (ha! I'm a serious night-owl!) and I reluctantly fell asleep as well. Then, on Tuesday the 11th, I spent some time at Renee's home, once again, hanging out, and Jonah got reaquainted with his Chukwurah cousins :) Later that night, Kristen and I both had dinner at Emily Wilde's home in Orem along with Margaret and her husband, Danny. The food was amazing (thanks to Emily) and the company even better. It was soooo good to see such precious friends and I'm so grateful to have them all still in my life.
Jonah is my big 10 year-old now and literally eating everything in sight! He also still enjoys "a good book" and always runs to grab one before he'll sit down for a meal. He is currently attending Odyssey Charter in his 4th grade year and loves learning new things!
He currently adores football and is getting better at throwing one each day. He loves to read his football book and then quiz me on stats or share new jokes he's learned with anyone who will listen. He's especially good at creating new Thomas the Train track configurations for his little brother. He's also obsessed with earning as much "chore chart" money that he can. I'm going to have to start setting a serious limit!

Ash is 6 now and more adorable than ever! He's still obsessed about outdoor time and LOVES to ride his scooter (while balancing on one leg like a flamingo). He's also taken to reading like a natural and he often carries around his current favorite book with him throughout the house.
He loves being read to, jumping on our mini-tramp, following Jonah around, going to the library, playing coolmath4kids.com, riding his scooter, and throwing balls. He's such a sweetheart and brings joy to all around him.
